Can’t believe I have written four versions for this series.
Stationery are getting beautiful each day
Not only for using but also for nice display
Today we shall discuss three more items
Why I say they are like us, are we so decent?

We are like the rectangular or square shape notebook
Many kinds of design, as we are having many kind of look
Some are beautiful, some are cute, we don’t bear to use
Once we write or scribble, they won’t be as good as new

We are like the round head sharp thumb tack
On the outer looks harmless but not at the back
Being possessive, refuses to set the object free
The victim is hurt as we pin it tightly without mercy

We are like the pencil holder
Which is placed on the table
The pencils and his family once put in place
When you need them, they are there to stay

We are like the stationery we use daily
Some are simple, some are not really
Whether cute or beautiful, awful or old
If they are usable, use them, don’t throw

Dear Friends, I actually submitted this article but there were some errors and I have removed and resubmitted, however, I still see few precious comments from the removed one, so I now copy and paste them here as they will soon disappear. Thanks for your comments and support again.
